Brieftons Spiralizer

So I was lucky enough to be included in a giveaway from Brieftons (kitchen gadgets)......I got to choose from three products, and I chose the spiralizer. There's no limit as to what can be made with this little contraption, and I love it! Just today, in less than ten minutes, I made apple chips and apple spirals for a snack. Yes, you still have to wash the food and still have clean up, but the spirals are fun, and the slices are all nicely uniform. It's safe enough for the older kids to use, with supervision. Clean-up is pretty easy and there's not alot of waste.....just the ends and a very small core. You can use just about any of the more firm fruit and veggies......onion, apple, carrots, cucumber, zucchini, cabbage, potato, peppers, cantaloupe, etc. I'm not sure I would try a tomato or not, but who knows, lol. But for garnishes, soups and stews, healthy veggie meals/sides, or just fun, healthy snacks...this is your gadget! Here's the spiralizer, right out of the box
Here's the chips and spirals...from green apples....there was a little bit of juice that dripped during the process
And, finally, here's the waste....not really much left of the two apples. Just the ends that need to be cut off to make a flat surface for putting on the machine, the small end left after cutting, and a very small core. Not much at all, some of it you can even chop up and add to whatever you're making so there's even less waste. :)
You can purchse the spiralizer HERE on amazon.
